The results show that preterm children score lower in receptive and expressive language during the first 18 months, with receptive language differences moderated by several factors. https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/doi/10.1542/peds.2024-070477/202663/Early-Expressive-and-Receptive-Language
